Chapter 63 Medicine Man?
Bingmasi?
There should be quite a few weapons and armor here, right?
Qiao Qiqi suddenly had an idea and climbed over the wall to sneak in.
Perhaps everyone had gone to do their work, and the Bingmasi was quiet at this time.
Qiao Qiqi walked through the corridor and quickly found what she wanted.
It was a very large warehouse.
There were a lot of armors and spears inside, which were exactly the same style worn by the soldiers who had just chased Qiao Qiqi's group.
She waved her hand, and all these things entered her space.
Only one set was left, which she changed into herself.
After she put on her clothes, she had just walked a short distance out of the warehouse when she heard a man's voice behind her, "Stop!"
Qiao Qiqi's body stiffened, she pulled her helmet down, turned around and lowered her head, looking timid.
"Why haven't you gone yet? The city is short of manpower everywhere, and you're still slacking off here. Get out of here!"
The man was wearing a red official robe and should be a civilian official of the Bingmasi.
Qiao Qiqi lowered her head and responded in a low voice, "Yes, sir!"
He turned around and walked out with his spear in hand.
"No, you are not from our Bingmasi!"
The man behind him saw that Qiao Qiqi's posture of holding the spear and the pace of walking were wrong, and shouted sternly.
oops!
It was discovered!
It seems that pretending to be a soldier in armor requires some skills.
Qiao Qiqi stuck out her tongue, took a deep breath, and walked quickly towards the door.
The man trotted after him, shouting, "Help! There's an assassin!"
You stab my sister!
Qiao Qiqi's face was filled with black lines.
Stop and look back.
The man bumped into him unexpectedly.
Qiao Qiqi casually gave him two big blows, which made him dizzy.
Then she found a rope, tied the man up, and threw him into a rockery in the courtyard.
Seeing the other party react, I wanted to shout.
Qiao Qiqi rolled her eyes, pulled off a pair of smelly cloth socks from his feet, and stuffed them directly into his mouth.
After the man's mouth was stuffed with the smelly socks, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Qiao Qiqi shrugged her shoulders, imitated the way the soldiers walked, and walked out in a swagger.
Just then, a group of soldiers wearing the same armor passed by the door.
Qiao Qiqi followed and stood at the end of the team.
She wanted to find out what was going on in Youzhou City and whether An Lei and the other man had been captured by them.
At this moment,
The leading soldier team leader said to the dozen or so people behind him, "Hurry up, we are still short of manpower in the Gen direction, we need to send reinforcements quickly."
Qiao Qiqi lowered her head and quickened her pace to follow them.
Soon, they arrived at the Gen position mentioned by the team leader.
Qiao Qiqi and two others were assigned to guard in front of a fence.
Those two people happened to be the two people in front of her team.
One of them looked at Qiao Qiqi carefully and said, "Hey, why do you look unfamiliar to me?"
“Oh, I just got here.”
Qiao Qiqi responded in a low voice.
The man looked at Qiao Qiqi again with doubt, "Oh, then pay attention, our current mission is very important."
"yes."
Qiao Qiqi lowered her head and didn't dare to say much.
I'm afraid that talking too much will expose myself.
Soon, it was time to eat.
Several soldiers came over pushing a large cart.
There are several large barrels on the frame.
Qiao Qiqi followed the two of them to get two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge.
The ordinary people who were locked in the wooden fences that were as high as a person also became anxious when they saw this.
They haven't eaten for two days.
Are these people planning to starve them to death?
Then the crowd inside the fence began to riot again.
"What are you arguing about? Your food will be here soon!"
One of the soldiers pushing the cart shouted at the crowd.
Hearing that food would be delivered to them soon, the people finally quieted down.
Not long after, the group of people came again pushing the carts.
When Qiao Qiqi looked at the green vegetable porridge, she always felt an indescribable weirdness in her heart.
She looked around at the crowd and found that An Lei and the others were not there.
Where did An Lei and the others go?
Could it be that he is still in the governor's mansion?
Qiao Qiqi thought about it and planned to find an opportunity to leave here and visit the governor's mansion.
The people stopped pushing and shoving and sat there quietly to eat.
Like the two soldiers, Qiao Qiqi found a place to sit down and watched them quietly.
Not long after, the people who had eaten the vegetable porridge suddenly overturned the bowls in their hands.
The clattering sound of dishes and chopsticks falling to the ground startled Qiao Qiqi, who was daydreaming.
She shuddered and looked at the crowd behind the fence.
Those people's faces turned blue and white, the veins on their hands and foreheads bulged, and they looked in pain.
"What's going on?"
Qiao Qiqi asked the person next to her in a low voice.
"It must be the medicine in the meal just now."
Someone nearby whispered back, "I heard that these medicine men will mature at midnight tonight. That's probably what they mean."
Medicine man?
Mature?
Qiao Qiqi looked at the ordinary people falling down one by one in the fence.
Could it be that the zombie-like living dead she had met at Nalubu Shop before was the medicine man they were talking about?
Qiao Qiqi felt more and more strange.
At this time, a soldier arrived on horseback with a message, "My Lord has ordered that the medicine man will be ready at midnight. By then, the entire city of Youzhou will be sealed off. You must all be ready, and everyone must leave Youzhou at midnight."
"yes!"
Everyone responded in a low voice.
Leaving at 11:00 PM means there are still five hours, or ten hours left.
In other words, she still has ten hours to find An Lei and the others.
"I'm going to relieve myself."
Qiao Qiqi didn't want to delay here any longer, so she found a reason to talk to the two soldiers and left.
After identifying the direction of the governor's mansion, she took a deep breath and rushed there.
Fortunately, I didn’t meet anyone else along the way.
And in the dilapidated temple outside the city.
Pei Shaoling, who was sitting in a wheelchair, felt a sudden pain in his heart.
He suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
Qiao Qiqi and the others have been gone for half a day, why haven’t they come back yet?
He gripped the handle of his wooden wheelchair and looked toward the door.
"Ling'er, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Pei Shaoling's expression was not right, Pei's mother, who was holding Pei Shuer, asked with concern.
"It's okay, I was a little worried about Qiqi. She's been gone for so long and hasn't come back yet."
"It's okay. They need to do some shopping and sign customs documents, so it's normal for them to be delayed a little longer."
Mother Pei took out the beef buns left by Qiao Qiqi from the carriage and distributed them to everyone, "You must be hungry, eat quickly!"
"Sister-in-law, we are hungry too. Can you give us some too?"
Not far away, the second and third branches of the Pei family were clamoring, hoping that Pei's mother would also give them some beef buns.
Mother Pei looked at the buns in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and ignored it.
"You, come here."
Pei Shaoling, who was worried about Qiao Qiqi, waved to Pei Shaoan, who was pretending to be an official.
